For what reason do they still insist on tools and not on results?
The argument I've heard from my commercial publisher is that they need to be able to edit the files later, such as in the case of scholarly/definitive editions where the state of research regarding the "true" version of a piece might change. I made my contact there the exact same offer: I could serve up a PDF that would meet all of their standards, and they flatly refused on this reason.
And to answer your other questions: I would never configure Lily to look like Sibelius, because Sibelius' output, even under the best circumstances, still looks terrible to me.
